Authorities: Single gunshot killed Mich. officer

WEST BLOOMFIELD TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) — Authorities say a police officer who was killed while responding to a 911 call at a former auto executive’s home in a wealthy Detroit suburb died of a single gunshot wound to the head.

Results from Coley’s autopsy have yet to be released. Police have said it isn’t clear if Coley committed suicide. Federal authorities had charged him with mishandling money intended for employee insurance.

A vigil for O’Rourke is planned for tonight outside the West Bloomfield Township police station.
